Poco F7: Whenever it comes to a powerful gaming smartphone, the name of Poco F7 automatically comes to the fore. The company has made this phone especially keeping gamers in mind. And the truth is that this phone looks quite dangerous on paper. But the real question is – does it really perform as well in gaming as it is being promoted? Let us tell you in a very desi style how Poco F7 is on the front of gaming, performance, heating and battery.

Gaming Performance: How powerful is BGMI and Free Fire?

When you take Poco F7 in your hand, the first thing that catches your attention is its display and processor. 144Hz OLED display and Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor – both together promise to make gaming smooth. In heavy games like BGMI, this phone reaches an average of 87.1 FPS, and frame stability remains above 99%. That is, no lag, no frame drop during gaming – a very smooth experience.

Some people have already achieved gameplay of up to 90 FPS in it, and the company has promised that 120 FPS support will also be available through OTA update. Games like Free Fire also run smoothly in it, but some tests have seen that 90 FPS is not maintained continuously – which may be due to software.

Talking about Valorant Mobile, that game has not been fully launched yet, but the Poco F7’s 144Hz display and powerful chipset are ready for this game. Meaning whenever that game is launched, the Poco F7 is going to dominate it.

Benchmark test: Hero in numbers too

Poco F7’s benchmark score is not just explosive in real-world gaming. It has scored above 20 lakhs on AnTuTu – specifically a figure of 2,083,452 has been seen, which puts it in the category of flagship killer. In the Geekbench test, it has scored 1981 in single core and 6001 in multicore – which shows that its processing power is really tremendous.

Heating: Not hot, cool

If the phone gets hot during long gaming, the fun gets spoiled. But Poco F7 is praiseworthy in this case too. Even after playing a heavy game like BGMI for an hour, the temperature of the phone remains below 40°C. This means that the vapor cooling system given in it is working properly.

Yes, after some long use, some users have reported that a little thermal throttling is seen – such as a slight drop in frame rate or overheating. But this happens with every smartphone and you can control it from the settings or use a cooling fan.

Battery and charging

Now let’s come to the most important issue – battery. Poco F7 has a 6500mAh battery, and according to some reports, the India variant can get a 7550mAh battery. With such a big backup, even if you play a game like BGMI on high settings for 1 hour, only 15-20% battery drains – which is quite balanced.

Charging is also its strength – with 90W fast charging, the phone gets charged up to 80% in just 30 minutes. That means even if the battery gets low after gaming, you will not have to wait for long.
